Creamy Mac and cheese!!
When I'm craving macaroni and cheese and trying to watch my calories, I'll choose this Lean Cuisine. It's a pretty good portion and is very creamy. The white cheddar has a nice cheesy taste and the noodles are always perfectly done. It's not very salty at all and sometimes I'll salt and pepper myself when it's done cooking.

Tastes pretty good. The noodles are quite soft though and break apart easily as you stir, so i wish they were firmer.

Unpleasant Taste
I decided to try this Lean Cuisine product because I have liked the regular Macaroni & Cheese so much (but now it seems another successful product is being discontinued by Target). The Vermont White Cheddar Mac & Cheese has an unpleasant taste, and smell; I could not even finish this rather small portion. Could someone tell me why Target has decided to opt for this one and discontinue carrying the long-standing, great-tasting Mac & Cheese?

A good quick lunch option
Always good for a quick lunch at work. Of all Lean Cuisine's I always grab the Vermont Mac n Cheese. Always consistent with taste and flavor. I wish they would put more in the box!

Product doesn't match picture on outside of box
So disappointed in this product. There was very little food inside. The pasta was nothing but mush. The pasta was so overcooked it wasn't enjoyable. I would never buy this again.

Overall good
For a low calorie/high protein Mac n cheese, I thought it was good! The portion size and nutritional information were pretty similar to their own Mac n cheeses and other brands’ low calories meals. It tasted good, not the best one I’ve had, but overall good. I would buy again.

not even 1/2 full
I wouldn't say it was even 1/2 full. It was 1/2 a cup. Just one layer of noodles with cheese sauce. I will not be buying this again.

Used to be so good
I bought this today expecting it to taste as good as when it was in the black box. I'm so disappointed by the new recipe. It is so bland and the noodles are very mushy now. Yuck!!! You can tell the company making it with cheaper ingredients and the price has gone up. Will not buy again.

I’ve had this before and it was a good quick choice, this time after making it it was mush, the pasta was falling apart and the cheese sauce was glutinous and more chunky then smooth. Wouldn’t purchase again

Awful!
Tasted like salt and flour - no evidence of cheese whatsoever. Waste of money.

Small portion, grainy
Was ok. Grainy, but probably the protein. Portion was an issue for me. It was enough for one person. Container was way too large. The product barely covers the bottom of the tray. Company could save money by using a smaller containe.

Delicious. Plenty for me. A mild, cheesy taste. Not too overwhelming.

Portion Size Ridiculous
Can't believe I'm actually writing a review for a frozen meal, but I'm so mad that the last 3 meals of this I've purchased have been less than half full. I'm hoping it's just a quality control error & the portion size wasn't changed. I know it's a diet meal, but I swear, the last one I had was literally 12 macaroni noodles total. The taste is great so I hope they fix this.
